“It is like an automatic, just turn the key“ – no sound, but the car starts moving, silently, and it moves faster, and faster – with just a silent buzz and surprisingly quick acceleration! From 0 to 40 mph in 2 seconds – awesome speed and awesome silence - with just the sound of the wheels on the road cruising at 40 mph. A new driving experience never before available - actually, this is not driving, this is avision of moving into future space and time!

It is a city car, it has no exhaust pipe anymore - “zero emissions” - and we fuel it at home by simply plugging it into an outlet, and charge it with “zero emission” wind energy today - and “zero emission” solar energy tomorrow. And I couldn`t believe it. A dream comes true - this is the next step for a zero emission future, a new way of life as we silently cruise into the future. The future is here – now!

And the car really is very efficient, it is a “1.4-liter” car. It needs 14 kilowatt hours of electricity equivalent to 1.4 liters of gas. This equates to 167 mpg – yes, this is not a misprint – 167 miles per gallon! And it is only €4 per 100km. A conventional “8 liter” car takes about €13 per-100 km, which is 3 times more money.

So, shouldn`t this great electric car not even be cheaper to drive than a normal car? Let’s review the numbers: the electric car costs €25,000, a cost that is comparable to conventional cars in Europe. The battery is leased for €67 per month, so how do annual costs compare?

10,000 km per year costs €1,300 in gas for a conventional car. Our “zero emission” car needs €800 for the battery lease and €400 for wind & solar power costs at home. Therefore, we have a profit already in the first year! We are making a €100 “zero emission” profit.

Now, let`s look at an example assuming 20,000 km per year: €2,600 in gas for a conventional car.

Our “zero emission” car needs €800 for the battery lease and €800 for wind & solar power costs. Therefore, the “Zero Emission Profit” is €1,000 per year - Every year! It is clear that it is cheaper today to go electric!
